Tribal VISTA: Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians
 
 
 
The conservation and management of air, water, forest, and wildlife resources is a continuing priority for the EBCI. The EBCI Natural Resources program has taken great strides over the last decade to create the capacity to manage and conserve natural resources for the EBCI community. The EBCI identified the need to begin to address the impacts of climate change on these resources in the EBCI Legacy Plan (Integrated Resource Management Plan) which was approved by EBCI Tribal Council in 2015. Climate change impacts will require informed adaptation strategies to mitigate impacts on cultural and natural resources. The EBCI Natural Resources program presently requires additional staff resources to further the development of strategies and tools to meet the previously mentioned needs.
